Okay, done deal. The only thing, after I've installed the created USBPorts.kext, disabled the patch, and removed InjectAll and XUHCI Unsupported, the USB 3.1 devices are not listed any longer. The controller is, but there are no devices. Should I leave the latter kext enabled perhaps?

Actually, I just want to make sure that if I save a USBPorts kext with this, that I'm not going to knock out those USB 3.1 ports.. (I wonder ... get rid of every single line that is not needed in the .dsl .. lots of reading to do if I want to try!)

Getting closer. The USB C and red 3.1 USB show up in the System Report, with the devices attached. The controller shows as AppleASMedia3142USBXHCI in System Report. But neither show up in Hackintool. The USB 3 ports on the blue 20 pin motherboard header still list USB3 devices as 480 mb on the 4 port HS USB hub. The PCIe card has a D720200AFI Chip set. Appears to be an NEC Renesas uPD720200 sold as Mac compatible back in the day. There's a 3.0 kext for Catalina. I have not tried it. Send me ICBM-1701.zip IOREG + Screenshot.zip

...and do I need to do anything special with PXSX 0x00 & 0x01 ASM2142 USB 3.1 Host Controller entries? Patches, renaming, something? In Hackintool, I have two of those plus the usual XHC Z370 Chipset Family controller. I guess I'll find out. USBMap complained about them, but your process is not using that, so let's see what we get The other issue I have is the USB 3 ports are listed, but any devices plugged in do not show up in the list. (Sorry, Sh!TTY USB3 Extension Cable fault) Not Working: (No devices show up at all, list or on an inbuilt hub in System Report) The USB 3.1 (Type C connector) and The USB 3.1 (Red USB 3 Connector) do not work PCIe 2 Port USB 3 Card Front Panel (USB3 internal header on motherboard) Reports as a 4 Port USB 2 Hub (with two ports) Any USB 3 device connected here also are listed as connected to the 4 Port USB 2 Hub So, in effect, none of the USB 3.1 or added PCI USB 3.0 ports work for any device. Would these be the PXSX ones in the USB Controller list?

I've got those two in there, though my understanding is that leaving (relying on) InjectAll is not a good idea long term. I don't see the PXSX@ needs to be renamed.. anymore. The 3.0 ports are not working, and the USB 3.1 bus that would show in System Report isn't even there. All I see listed are three USB 3.0 bus listings. Not even the 2.0 ones that are usually there. But all the ports that can do HS work as HS, just no SS recognition at all. I also have an additional USB 3.0 PCIe card. It was from a MacPro1,1 - had native USB support there.

Here is one from Big Sur: USB3 ports are not working. The video has some random green pixels where there should be shading / shadowing .. it looks messed up. See Photos. Trying to use USBInjectAll, so I could do a USB Map, no matter what I did, -uia_exclude_hs uia_include=HS03,HS04 so I could do the rest of them, didn't matter. I made a USBPorts.kext with hackintool, didn't matter. At one point USBMap showed me PXSX@! needs rename RB0something. A weird USB thing is the front panel ports, they're USB 3 types. Plugging in a mouse/keyboard ... they work, but they do not show up on USBMap polling or hackintool USB as a connected HS USB device either. Send me ICBM-1701.zip Photos(1).zip Photos.zip

How long have you waited? Could it possibly be that since no boot screen shows on video cards that do not have Mac firmware onboard, you're not going to see anything until that second part where the progress line draws across under the Apple logo, and then fades to the login page. Getting to that point sometimes, particularly on first boots after making changes or after finishing with the installer, can take what seems like an incredible amount of time. You may need to use onboard video or something else as a primary display source so you can see what the boot loader is outputting. I have not switched anything here yet, though I'm going to sometime this afternoon.

I've not touched anything yet. The Gigabyte RX 580 I ordered came today. So in theory, I should be able to just drop that in? Though I imagine it's not going to show me the boot screen, so I'm going to use one monitor on the inbuilt video anyway.

Yes, it's Asus, It doesn't seem to matter what brand I've used. I used to get Pioneer drives always since that's what Apple actually used, but I've got a few different ones here. When this started, it never mattered what brand. Seems to me though, that I was able to do something in the shell with a kext or some system function to get that to appear again. I don't recall it being a kextload .. that wouldn't make any sense anyway. But it was something that rediscovered it and didn't mess with the hard drives at all.

When I did them, I did a few. See filenames. I'm exploring more of how this stuff works too, and want to see what changes when etc. https://easyupload.io/c3wor7

Ah, with a disc mounted and still accessible you mean?

OpenCore.. I'm guessing that Apple used an 8700 i5 variant and it's picking up on that, instead of resolving to UnknownCPU.

If it's showing as the wrong CPU, though cosmetic I know, can that be fixed the same way by changing whatever one of them is doing it? (Or something weird voodoo gonna happen back there?) As in my 8700K is listed as i5 and not i7. Previously I did have the text at unknown CPU, this isn't exactly unknown, it's just mis-known.

Since 10.12, if I leave a disc in the optical drive and it goes unused for some specific length of time, when you go to access the disc it won't access and the icon will disappear from the desktop after a little while, and the drive is no longer detected. It is not longer listed in the System Report. A reboot is required to get it back. As long as you use the mounted disc, or take it out when you're done it's fine. I'm sure it has something to do with drive sleep, but that's disabled. Though I would rather have it on if possible. I had a shell command that would cause the drive to reintroduce itself at one point, but I didn't save it in any notes. Any insight on this? Drive brand, firmware, doesn't matter.
